ORIGIN
Calchaquí Valley, Argentina
TERROIR
Deep, poor, rocky soils. Irrigation from the Andes. Wide thermal amplitude with big differences (approximatelly 22° C between the minimun during thecold mornings and nights, and the maximun during sunny days). Dry climate, little rainfall, 120mm of rain a year, 15% humidity and 300 days of sunshine. Cold mornings and nights, and long hot days result in wines that are highly concentrated in color, aromas and flavors with a unique fruity character.

Cabernet Sauvignon
WINEMAKING
The winemaker’s goal is to optimize the expression of the dual climate in Cafayate – hot days and cool nights. The effect of this wide thermal amplitude has on the grapes is to give them higher concentration of fruit, color and balance. The grapes are vinified separately and aged for 15 months in both American and French oak barrels.
Colour
Ruby red, dark and intense with tiles edges.
Aroma
Spicy where red pepper and paprika outstand. The oak adds smoky and tobacco notes. Persistent aromas.
Palate
Elegant tasting, sophisticated and complex, well balanced with a mouth full of ripe tannins. Black berries, morello chery and pepper notes stand out.
